When I first came to Fairview Hospital, I met "The Nursery Nurse", Mary Alamillo. She was in charge of the babies, and you never woke her babies or you would have to deal with Mary. I loved her, she made me laugh so hard with her quick humor, she taught me wonderful work ethics and she gave me lasting memories at Fairview and many celebrations we shared together such as attending my wedding. I know that Heaven is having just a little more fun now that they have a new angel, Mary. Fondly, Deanne Lyle R.N.
